i added a new *guideline* ...

8. PLEASE DON'T ADVERTISE YOUR DRUG USE ON THE MESSAGE BOARD

if you use illegal substances, that's your business. please don't advertise your drug use on this message board. the *rave scene* has experienced a significant amount of negative scrutiny - by the media, by politicians, and by the general public - and ALL of this negative scrutiny is due to the PERCEPTION that raves are simply about drugs.

because of this negative perception, the toronto rave scene is experiencing a SEVERE venue-shortage problem. there is currently a very limited number of venues that are still willing to rent to rave promotors.

we are doing our best to change this perception but we can't do it if people continue to advertise their drug use in public. this message board is read by a lot of people, including members of the media and politicians. these people are not IN on your inside jokes so be aware that even your *drug jokes* may be misineterpreted.

if you want to post a message to talk about drugs in an informative or educational manner, then that's fine. but other drug talk is not welcome.

thanks,
